SCOTTISH LEAGUE CUP FINAL
Venue: HAMPDEN PARK
HIBERNIAN 1 ROSS COUNTY 2
Scorers: Fontaine; Gardyne, Schalk
Great day for Ross County as they completed a green double having already beating Celtic in the semi final, they defeated the Edinburgh greens to achieved their first ever cup success. It was far from a classic but the final was settled in dramatic style with a last minute winner.
For the first time in over a hundred visits to Hampden I went via Rutherglen train station. It's a good hike to the east end of the ground (25-30minutes) but still much quicker than the walk from the city centre or waiting in the queue at Mount Florida station. A good option if travelling from/to Lanarkshire area.
Personal note: My 15th Scottish League Cup Final but first involving either of these clubs.
Attendance: 38,000 with Hibs bringing 30,000
